Our studio is in need of a low-fire glaze pen or marker that will fire
out at a low cone for organizational purposes. The demarcation of a class
session, though unsightly, has become seemingly necessary to attempt to
organize a great deal of pottery (and different signatures)
at a reasonable pace. An ideal pen would be able to leave a class "symbol"
without damaging the pot with marks during the greenware phase and still be
visible after being bisqued. Hopefully, this mark will burn out after the
glaze firing. We high-fire to cone 6 in an electric kiln--I am unsure of
our bisque temperature....Any suggestions?

How bout using rubber stamps and a regular inkpad? Different little stamps
for each class etc and it all fires out not a mark left.
